“The poll was conducted by Michael D. Cohen, Executive Vice President and Special Counsel to Mr. Trump, as an internal poll that questioned, amongst other things, the various GOP leaders that came to Trump Tower to meet and encourage Mr. Trump to run for Governor.”

Trump’s allies have insisted the businessman and TV personality remains a serious potential candidate for governor and that most party officials remain in his corner.

Astorino today at the Capitol says that isn’t the case.

“I would say we have a healthy majority of the Republican support in this state as the same with the Conservative Party,” Astorino said.

As to whether Trump will indeed run, Astorino wouldn’t say if he thinks the mogul is serious.
